Hey gang,
I'm a long time auto tech that's just starting to dabble in metal fab and restoration work. I'm restoring a classic car and started researching metal shaping and found this group. Hope to learn a ton from the vast experience pool here, and if anyone has automotive questions, I'd be glad to help!
 
Hi Toyguru
Welcome. Lots of different skills with people here. What kind of car are you working on?

My Dad had a Corair. Beautiful car in my opinion. Car restoration is fun. Welcome. Assuming you have an English wheel? Wish I had space for one!

They do have nice lines. I don't have an English wheel unfortunately, someday....
I purchased a video from Dave Gardiner that shows lots of techniques for shaping metal without big pricey machines, as I'm in short supply of space and hobby money lol
 
Just before I got my license, my dad sold our Corvair - it looked almost as sporty as a Corvette, it had mags on it and went like snot! It was my brother's car, but it had some electrical problems and my dad was tired of it.

To my sorrow, 3 months later it was stolen and sent over the Hamilton escarpment.
